Urrghh...looking around on PSP 6.0 (the 30 Day free eval), and realizing that I am the type who needs a manual to be able to understand or use it.

Found a lot of tutorials out there for PSP, tho...amazing what Photoshop's poor cousin is capable of!

Any advice/suggestions/warnings from the image experts out there?

I've got a good idea for a sig, tho...a Thor in a group of other mechs with a voice balloon saying, 'What??'...with a sign taped to it's back that said 'KNOCK ME' with a big red target underneath. Off in one corner would be 'Trashguy' in rusty metallic with bullet holes all through it.

PSP 6???

If you're using the trial anyway, get the trial of PSP 9.

That said, I bought PSP 8 a while back (before 9 came out) and use it daily, though I don't do a lot of image creation so to speak, more just compositing and editing.

Yep, PSP 6.0...I was given a copy by a friend of mine. Also present on the disc was PSP 7.0; I decided to give the older versions a try to see what all was involved and how useful they would be, you see.

You use yours daily, eh? What kind of learning curve am I looking at, and are there manuals around I could get?

(...thanks for the reply...with all the graphic talent here, I was wondering why no one replied)
